Dehd: 3 songs live on 2 Meter Sessions (2022)

Dehd is an American three-piece indie rock band from Chicago formed in 2015. The band consists of members Emily Kempf, Jason Balla and Eric McGrady. On their 2020 record "Flower of Devotion" Dehd captured and shared the precarious balance between real life and real hope, a feat mirrored by instant pop melodies and infectious punk energy. The Chicago trio had the audacity to look ahead when many of us didn’t, to imagine improvement through mere existence. It was an album we needed. We need its follow-up, the triumphant "Blue Skies", even more.

The writing is sharper and smarter on "Blue Skies". The harmonies and rhythms are more sophisticated and considered. The moods are deeper, the swings between them more inspiring. But this is still Dehd, just more wild and wonderful than ever before. "Blue Skies" is their poignant, redemptive, and deeply fun testament to trusting and pushing yourself.

Dehd visted Dutch tv show 2 Meter Sessions for a recording abroad, in South West Wales. Recording location was StudiOwz, located in the depths of Pembrokeshire. This converted chapel has been designed and built by owner/engineer Owain Fleetwood Jenkins throughout 2018, and is now open for recordings.

About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy, started in 1987. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.

Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).

The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zealand band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.
